The Kewanee Area United Way utilizes fundraisers to raise funds to support both the Agencies in Henry and Stark County that have been approved for grants during the current year and any relevant community impact projects that build the community in the areas of Financial Security, Educational Success and Health initiatives. These fundraisers are held to supplement the donations that are regularly received each month, quarter or yearly. The yearly goal for fundraisers is approximately $15,000-$20,000. That goal is attainable with the support of businesses and area resources.
Fundraisers are a filler to 'stand in the gap' between what is needed to fund the resources provided by the nonprofits supported by KAUW in Henry and Stark County and the actual amount of donations that are received each year. Please support the Kewanee Area United Way and 'Stand in the Gap' to keep essential services available to all residents of our two counties.
